"Retreat..." Before he could say the word, a gunshot interrupted his voice, and then he saw a bloody hole blasted out of the captain's front door!
Blood and brain matter quickly splashed onto the surrounding subordinates.
Before the squad leaders could react to the sudden turn of events, the squadron leader began to fall to the ground with his eyes wide open and a look of death-defying expression!
"Enemy attack..."
The deputy captain was the first to react and shouted.
"The captain is dead, the machine gun will fight back immediately and kill the Eighth Route Army that sneaked up on the captain!"
Two crooked handles set up nearby quickly opened fire, and the bullets flew towards the building where the sniper team was hiding!
But the bullets were blocked by the thick brick wall!
The two sharpshooters hiding behind the brick wall did not wait to be beaten. The moment the gun was fired, they retracted their heads from the shooting hole, then retreated and moved to the next shooting position!
At this time, another remnant soldier rushed out of the yard, and with them came a string of bullets!
None of the four Japanese soldiers escaped, they all fell on the way to retreat!
"Da da da……"
Just when everyone thought that the Eighth Route Army would definitely not chase them out, the sound of machine gun fire did not stop!
There was a shooting hole on the wall of the yard where the gunfire rang out!
The barrel of the machine gun was stretched out and it fired at the street!
The deputy captain was frightened. He saw soldiers being killed around him. All the bullets fired by the imperial army hit the turning wall. The bullets flew everywhere and could not hurt the Eighth Route Army hiding behind the brick wall. They could only
Being beaten passively!
He decisively took over the command and ordered anxiously: "Retreat, the Eighth Route Army is hiding behind the brick wall, we can only kill them with artillery!"
"Retreat immediately and ask the captain to mobilize the mountain artillery squadron to reinforce us!"
"Da da da……"
More and more shooting holes emerged from the walls on both sides of the street. Bullets were flying towards everyone like a rain of bullets. Soldiers were shot and fell to the ground every second!
All the Japs understand that if they want to survive, they must leave here immediately!
After hearing the order to retreat, no one hesitated, turned around and ran away, wanting to get out of here quickly!
"Da da da……"
Suddenly, a burst of heavy machine gun fire reached their ears, and it was in front of them!
As soon as everyone turned the corner, they saw a roadblock suddenly appeared on the street that was smooth when they came in!
A heavy machine gun and two light machine guns were set up behind the roadblock, shooting at everyone wildly!
The first few soldiers were beaten into pieces on the spot, and then fell down in a pool of blood!
"Baga, the Eighth Route Army wants to block us here and annihilate us!" the deputy captain shouted!
"Everyone, get down and take cover!"
"Heavy machine gun fire for cover, grenade fire, kill the fire points in front of us, let's kill them together!"
The Japanese's strong fighting power is all achieved with real swords and guns, and it is vividly demonstrated here!
Use the corpses lying on the ground as cover to quickly form a line of defense!
The heavy machine gun was set up and began to fire, suppressing the firepower of the Eighth Route Army!
"Company commander, the Japanese sent out three heavy machine guns to suppress us. We are no match. Two machine gunners have already been sacrificed!" the fire squad leader yelled while half-crouching in front of He Jun!
They killed the Japanese reconnaissance team twenty minutes ago!
Ten minutes ago, when they were hiding on the battlefield and preparing to wait and see, Chief of Staff Hong Linfeng suddenly gave them an order!
"Reinforce the Third Company, concentrate our forces to kill the Japs who are attacking the Third Company, and kill a large number of Japanese troops!"
After receiving the order, He Jun's first thought was to block the Japanese escape route.
Only in this way can the troops completely annihilate all the little devils!
The Japanese reinforcements don't know the streets and alleys in the city. How can the army be clear?
It only took five minutes to walk through the alley to reach the battlefield. However, he did not order the troops to attack the enemy's back directly. Instead, he built fortifications on the only way for the enemy to retreat and waited for work!
In his eyes, in a defensive battle, the continuous pressure faced will definitely be less than that of an attack, and the casualties will be much less!
After waiting for a few minutes, the little devil finally arrived!
The result was not beyond his expectation. Three light and heavy machine guns fired at the same time, killing seven or eight Japanese soldiers with zero casualties in the blink of an eye!
Seeing the anxious look on the fire squad leader's face, he was not in a hurry!
In addition to the blocking position in front of him, he also has several back-ups!
"Boom boom..."
Two grenades hit behind the roadblock, and a machine gun team was blown up on the spot!
The two machine gunners fell in a pool of blood, and the machine gun was also damaged!
The fire squad leader became even more anxious: "Company commander, the Japanese grenade has also fired. If you continue to defend, the entire fire squad will be punished here!"
"Don't be anxious!" He Jun is still as confident as ever!
"The first platoon should have already moved back into position. They are about to take action. As long as they take action, our crisis will be over!"
"Boom boom boom..."
As soon as he finished speaking, an explosion went off, and three heavy machine guns called Zheng Huan, dozens of meters away, misfired on the spot!
As plumes of black smoke rose from the ground, at least twenty Japanese soldiers fell behind the temporary bunker built by the Japanese army!
"The first platoon has taken action, then it's the second and third platoon's turn!" He Jun ordered!
"Da da da……"
The sound of machine gun fire soon sounded among the Japanese troops, but there were no bullets flying over, but instead a burst of Japanese screams!
The Japanese vice-captain was stunned by a series of attacks!
The battle situation changed too quickly. He obviously had an absolute firepower advantage. As long as he fired two more rounds of grenades, the Eighth Route Army in front would be killed!
But at this critical moment, a round of nearly twenty grenades suddenly hit his head!
It's like rain, falling densely around everyone!
The machine gunners and grenade launchers suffered devastating blows in an instant!
Because the explosion point was too close to me, although the flying fragments did not injure me, the shock wave generated by the close-range explosion made me dizzy and tinnitus!
Before I woke up, gunshots rang in my ears, and they were all familiar sounds of gunfire!
On the walls on both sides of the street, a large number of shooting holes suddenly appeared like before, and then the gun barrels stretched out and fired bullets wildly into the street!
Just now, the troops lost more than a squad while searching the yard!
Before retreating, the Eighth Route Army counterattacked and lost half the squad, including the squadron leader!
Dozens more soldiers were lost here one after another!
A strengthened squadron suffered more than half of its casualties before a head-to-head confrontation with its opponent. No, most of them suffered casualties!
Nearly half of the already much shorter team fell here, and people were still being shot. There were not even a full infantry squad left alive!
The deputy captain knew that if the troops continued to hold on like this, and faced with the mysterious attacks of the Eighth Route Army, the soldiers of this small team would also have to answer here!
My mind is running rapidly, thinking of solutions!
Suddenly, the yard that was shooting into the street came into view of the deputy captain!
The frowned brows quickly relaxed, his eyes lit up and he shouted: "We are not going to retreat. The heavy machine guns are blocking the front. Our heavy machine guns and grenade launchers have been blown up again. We will definitely not be able to escape in a head-on collision!"
"Everyone goes into the nearby courtyard. We occupy two courtyards, rely on the courtyards to defend, and wait for reinforcements!"
"Guard, use the signal gun to signal the brigade leader immediately. We are under heavy siege by the Eighth Route Army and need support!"
The desperate subordinates seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and took orders immediately!
"Woo woo woo... bang..."
The flare went up into the sky with a screeching sound, and then exploded!
The little devils who were still able to move on the street all went crazy and rushed towards the yard like hungry wolves!
Bullets were flying around them, and everyone knew that the sooner they entered the yard, the safer they would be!
First Battalion Commander Chen Bing stood behind a brick wall not far away, staring motionlessly at the battle situation through the shooting hole.
When I saw the signal flare rising into the sky, and when I saw the movement of the Japanese troops, I immediately shouted!
"No, the Japanese army has to rely on the courtyard to wait for help, and they have also sent a signal for help. Now we are in trouble!"
"Contact First Company Commander He Jun immediately, set off now, and hold off the Japanese reinforcements for at least ten minutes at all costs!"
"The second, third and third companies, and the firepower company, besiege the remaining little Japs together!"
"The fire company set up the mortars. We have our own equipment and the ones the regiment commander gave us last night. All are set up!"
"The Japs had a good idea of relying on the yard to wait for help, but they ignored one problem!"
"The courtyard wall can stop the bullets we shoot, but it can't stop the cannonballs falling from the sky!"
"We have six mortars, and the yard is so big. If twenty or thirty shells hit it, it can blow it up all over!"
"Just now, they were on the street. Their formation was too scattered and the power of the artillery shells could not be exerted, so the artillery platoon never took action! Now they have gathered in the yard, just in time for our artillery platoon to open up!"
The enemy changed and we changed, and while the battalion was making tit-for-tat changes, the Japanese captain at the foot of the city wall panicked!
"Sir, it's the signal flare fired by the 4th Squadron. It's a distress signal. They must be besieged by the Eighth Route Army and are in urgent need of reinforcements!" the lieutenant shouted anxiously when he saw the flare!
The captain frowned and shouted: "Bagh Yalu, who can tell me what happened on the battlefield!"
"Three reinforced squads suddenly disappeared, three reconnaissance teams are gone, and now even a reinforced squadron of reinforcements is in danger. Do you need to directly ask the headquarters for help?"
"What tricks did our opponents use? How many troops did they have? They were able to defeat our reinforced squadron in such a short period of time. We had no choice but to ask for help from our superiors!"
No one answered his question, and his subordinates remained silent!
Hearing the gunfire coming from the battlefield becoming more and more intense, the captain did not dwell on this issue forever!
The situation was urgent and he decisively ordered: "The Third Squadron, immediately reinforce the battlefield. We must rescue the Fourth Squadron and set off now!"
The lieutenant immediately reminded: "Sir, there are only two infantry squads left in the third squadron!"
The captain glared at the lieutenant and cursed angrily: "Besides the third squadron, do we have any other troops that can reinforce the battlefield? Execute the order!"
While more than a hundred little Japs were rushing toward the battlefield, the remaining soldiers of the Fourth Squadron, less than fifty men, were suffering under artillery fire!
People are being killed and injured every moment!
The vice-captain and his subordinates lay on the ground together. Whenever screams reached his ears along with the explosion, his eyes would jump and the expression of heartache on his face would become even stronger!
First Battalion Commander Chen Bing was so right. The Eighth Route Army attacked them with mortars, which he did not expect!
But there is no regret in the world, so he can only hold on with his men and pray that the bombardment will end soon!
However, Lady Luck was not on his side!
"boom……"
A cannonball hit less than one meter away from him!
The shell exploded, and the powerful shock wave instantly knocked him unconscious!
Even though he was lying on the ground, two shell fragments still penetrated his body!
